"Flavours of Diplomacy" brought together 23 countries. The Belarusian Ministry of Foreign Affairs hosted the first culinary festival

India, Venezuela, Zimbabwe, Serbia, Sudan, Türkiye, Uzbekistan, Russia, Palestine, Qatar, the United Arab Emirates, and the CIS Executive Committee presented their national dishes. 23 countries, over 10 international organisations, and more than 150 guests gathered in one place. “Even the most iconic dishes have no single correct recipe. Every family has its own flavour, every culture its own way of cooking and serving. But that doesn’t stop us from sharing the same table. On the contrary — that’s our strength”, - noted Minister of Foreign Affairs Maxim Ryzhenkov. A vibrant national costume showcase and a culinary masterclass on traditional Belarusian dish draniki (potato pancakes) were held as well.
